This work is about finding one’s space in a crowded environment. It looks to carving one’s own personal section for themselves, claiming a space and marking out wherever one goes. As with the drawing, though temporary, we leave our traces behind.

How does one choose a space, and how much do we negotiate with another person’s space? How do others navigate the areas that one already inhabit?
